"Following up on their very well-received previous release on Roots, Ortin Cam and Charles Bells are now consolidating their position with Black; episode 6 of what is rapidly becoming one of Belgium's premier techno imprints. Three different tracks; three showcases of what techno can be in 2010. 'Black' is no holds barred, banging darkness, referring back to the funky, industrial sound many of us still feel techno is all about. 'Saga' is engineered to offer DJs the mother of all breaks, building up to a drop to match. This animal guarantees complete devastation, mercifully releasing the crowd's energy after minutes of anticipation. 'Pyramid' explores a slightly different realm of the genre, making use of dubby effects, voices mangled beyond recognition and a deep, stomping repetitiveness that will pummel listeners and dancers alike into a state of hypnotic detachment."

ROOTS 1026EP

"Rockford Inc. is Sullivan Sawyer and Dwight Jenkins who put their souls into their computer and see what comes back out. In this case, it's 'Like a Rock,' a contemplative slow-burner that spreads itself over 11 minutes. On the B-side, 'Mina's Theme' is an uplifting melodic house tune, drenched in optimism, the ideal antidote for dreary dancefloors."
